Chapter 25: Drug Trial
After leaving the hospital, Janet immediately called Bernie and Fiona.
But neither of them answered, She had no choice but to go to the Lind family’s house again.
"Are you insane? Why are you constantly ringing the doorbell?"
Minutes later, the maid opened the door and yawned.She seemed annoyed that Janet had disturbedher sleep.
"Let me in! I’m looking for Bernie and Fiona!"
"The entire family is on a vacation to the Maldives.They’re not at home."
"When will they come back?" Janet asked anxiously.
Fiona said she didn’t have the money to pay the agreed money.How could they go on vacation to theMaldives?
"I don’t know.Go ask them!" The maid slammed the door.
Janet stared at the door and kicked it.Her body trembled with rage.
"You lying bastards! All of you will rot in hell!"
The Lind family had gone to the Maldives.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, Janet couldn’t get in touch with them.She had to think of away to pay Hannah’s medical bills.
Perhaps God had sensed that Janet needed money.
As soon as Janet opened her browser, she saw an advertisement about a hospital looking forvolunteers for clinical trials to come up with tumor drugs.
They were paying the subjects a thousand dollars for staying in the hospital for a few days and tryingout the medicines.
In case the drug had repercussions on the subject’s body, they would get about ten to forty thousanddollars as compensation, depending on the seriousness of the problem. It seemed like the perfectopportunity for Janet.
She was young and healthy.
Even if the medicines had any side effects, they wouldn’t harm her that much.
Janet went to the hospital, filled out the registration form, and went straight to get a physicalexamination. She planned to try the medicines the next week.
Delicious smell of food wafted in the air as soon as Ethan entered the house.
"Why did you come back early today?"
Janet cast a sidelong glance at him and continued to toss the spaghetti in the pan.
The apron accentuated her alluring figure.
One could grasp her slender waist with one hand.
Her curvy bum bobbed as she moved around.
The bowtie on her back seemed to tease Ethan — as if hinting at him to open it and peek at thetempting gift inside.
Ethan’s eyes darkened as he felt hot in his throat.
He unbuttoned his collar and went to the fridge to get a bottle of water.
"I was off duty earlier today," he said after gulping down the water He looked at her floral apron andtugged at the hem.
"Is this an apron? It’s pink.It can’t even cover your thighs."
It was more like a sexy lingerie.
"Stop pulling my apron.I got it at a discount.Pink is a beautiful color, is it not? Take the spaghetti to thetable.I’ll make some salad."
Janet glared at him and continued to cut the vegetables without uttering a word Ethan grinned and putthe spaghetti bowl on the dining table.
Several design sketches were scattered on the table.
Just as Ethan sorted the papers and was about to keep them aside, a piece of paper fell from hishands.
I was the physical examination report Ethan looked at it and felt something was wrong. He couldn'tunderstand why there was a nicotine test.
Janet put the salad on the table and realized that Ethan didn’t seem to be interested in the food tonight"You don’t like the food?"
"No, I was thinking about something."
The fork in Ethan’s hand sulled, he turned lo look at her met his piercing gaze.
"What’s it?’ she asked.
"Have you volunteer to do drug trials?" he asked coldly.
Janet’s hand trembled, and her fork fell.She didn’t know why she was flustered, but she tried to remaincalm.
“Yes.The hospital conducts regular trials like these.Moreover, the trial is legal.Don’t look at me as if Ihave done something horrific."
Ethan put down his fork, pursed his lips, and looked at her.
"Don’t go.Don’t you know that the drug trial could cause serious side effects?"
